Overall Attitude?

[Zutok]

I've been 5 boxin' on Drak'Thul (Alliance) side for about a month now... and I'm beginning to believe that either, A. I should have rolled Horde, B. The realm I'm on is a baby sitting palace built by Blizzard (completely full of immature kids), or C. 99% of the ENTIRE population of WoW are complete buttwipes!

Lemme explain... at first, I enjoyed multiboxing and getting the occasional "OMG, LOOK AT THAT" attention. Now, I dread it! I can't even go through any city w/o people following me... or the "ZOMG HACKER... I'M REPORTING YOU". I get people also coming up to me on an everyday bases just blurting out "ur retarded", etc. WTF? Am I in the dark here, or are you all getting this kind of BS treatment as well?

I've already been reported once for telling one of these idiots to basically "piss off" (getting the wonderful "you've been warned" e-mail from Blizzard, which I think was completely unfair as I was "defending my presence").

Just in general, something that was once fun... isn't any longer because of the overall attitude of the population I "game" with. How's it like w/ the rest of you? I'm curious...

Ive been 5 boxing for about a year and a half now..... and I used to let it get to me when people were jerks, mostly because I didnt know if thier reporting me would actually get me into some kind of trouble.....

Now after several conversations with GMs, due to being reported, I actually enjoy people threatening to report me.... It allows me to smugly explain that I do not fear the "report stick" , I actually relish it and encourage it..... Most of the time the lazy bums dont even bother!!!

Out of curiosity, what level are you?

Most of my "zomg botter" somehow shifted to "zomg cheater/powerleveler/account seller" after I hit my mid-50's. I think they figured out that if I was almost 60, I must have been reported at least once.

Alleviate your stress by making a macro:
[code:1]/s Multiboxing is not against the terms of use, but harassment is. If you feel concerned about the rules of the game, please ticket a GM. Any slanderous comments will likewise be reported to a GM. For more info on Multiboxing, see www.dual-boxing.com. Have a nice day.[/code:1]

What I find funny is the people that say they are going to report me for haveing 5 accounts and "powerleveling"..... Then they ask me, if Im willing to sell one of my toons..... :P

I get people trying to bribe me into leveling their characters. "Just put it on follow and give me XP"

lol... thanks for the quick replies. Obviously I'm not alone here... and that's kind of encouraging (weird, huh?). Anyhow, yeah... I'm nearly 40 on my 5 shaman (love boxin' the Draenei Shammies, btw.. GotN x 5 = 15 seconds of near invincibility on my lead :wink: )!

But, anyhow... I'm not worried about them reporting. I'm just getting sick of the attention (yeah, I know... this "field" generates it, and if you can't handle it... don't do it). Was just curious to see how spread out the "negative" side of it plagued us boxers! Thanks again for the replies!

BTW, the "selling accounts" convo is a biggie here also... I get it all the time. I'm personally not into that, and DREAD leveling toons. Once I'm 70... no way in hell am I lettin' these guys go!

I hate* being at cap and if I didn't love my characters quite as much as I do I might consider selling them :?

*Well not hate, but I find the game far more fun while levelling than when just grinding rep and stuff at cap.

I got some shit liek taht from lvl 1-20 but then it was over and yes allys are know for ther retarded ways and kidlike playin :S

[Hippieman]

I went from "ZOMG! BOTZ!" to "ZOMG! IT'S THEM MULTIBOXERZ! AWESUME!" in about a week. Just educate them a bit or force them to watch Xzin or Elliev's movies.

Now, I'm a fuckin' rockstar.
